Default Roosted by a fellow Kawi rider

Took my wife and kids to Herrling Island today ( hour east of Vancouver on the Fraser river). When we were leaving some idiot on a KX passes us on the exit road and blows gravel at us. We proceed slowly out so I don't bottom out my trailer and he passes us back the other way spraying rocks at out bikes and van.

I yelled a few obscenities at him hoping he'd stop and I could knock some sense into him but he didn't. Probably not the best way to show my kids how adults deal with difficult people (watch Dad kick some ***) but it ruined a good day. Hopefully he'll try that on some H.A. wannabe and receive some Karma.

Thanks for letting me vent, resume regualar programming.

You should have ran him down like a dog and punched him in the stomach. That's just plain ignorant.

+1 on ignorance. Thats like two brothers fighting each other for a woman...or something way too dramatic (him being a green guy and all). Probably some punk kid who think's he's a hot shot with a big engine and doesnt know what to do with it.

Kindof like young guys that have tricked out honda civics street racing. I just diesel power by em and watch their confused faces watch me cut them right back off....(sorry blowing a little steam of my own)

The word usage of ignorant is one of my pet peeves......

ignorant




1.
lacking in knowledge or training; unlearned: an ignorant man.



2.
lacking knowledge or information as to a particular subject or fact: ignorant of quantum physics.



3.
uninformed; unaware.



4.
due to or showing lack of knowledge or training: an ignorant statement.

sorry..... the jerk was rude and those are the people that give all the rest of us a bad name

No no it works:

due to or showing lack of knowledge or training: an ignorant statement.
replace statement with action.

He was an ignorant *****.

Nothing pisses me off more that someone intentionally roosting another rider.
About a year ago, a"friend" of mine was practially begging me to go riding with him. Seemed he had no one to ride with. He rides a 250R quad. So I gave in and went riding with him. During the first half hour of riding he intentionally roosted me twice, and just thought that it was the funniest thing. Well guess what? Now I will no longer ride with him either.
If you're racing or riding in close proximity to another, you will naturally get roosted a time or two. But to do it just to show off is rude.
Gee, look at me, I can spin my tires!!!
